Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.
Update from 2.15 to 2.16
-
@bdream no. u are probably missing some modules that mm removed
read the startup messages
npm start
or
if using pm2
pm2 logs --lines=100 -
@bdream I strongly guess that one of the 3rd party modules is not compatible vith MM2.16.0. I had the same issues with MMM-MyCalendar, which caused a black screen after starting MM. My approach is to disable all 3rd party modules by adding the line
disabled: true;for each module and enable it one after the other by setting it to
disabled: false;Taht might discover quicker, which module is the culprit instead of poking in logs (that is my personal approach!).
When you found the module, that causes issues, contact the developer on github, or look for an alternative fork which seems to be maintained.
Regarding the above mentioned MMM-MyCalendar module, I reverted to the default calendar module, which works just fine and delivers the same features.

@fozi come on, this is easy. get the messages. it will tell you which lib to install

@sdetweil okay, I’m going to try with messages.

That is faster, than going withdisabled: true;anddisabled: false;over all my modules :crossed_fingers: even it was a guess with the related module to me.@Fozi now i have to see how to deal with your statement “When you found the module, that causes issues, contact the developer on github, or look for an alternative fork which seems to be maintained.”
Comment out this module in config and it works again.
Many thanks for your fast help!!!

I tried it again. Now the electron does not even start.
> magicmirror@2.16.0 start > DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:=:0}" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js sh: 1: ./node_modules/.bin/electron: not foundI tried to re-install electron with "sudo npm install electron@latest
", but no change. -
@bdream so you need to go to the
MMM-DWD-Pollen folder and do
npm install request --save -
@sdetweil I did it but don’t know what to do with these messages :face_with_rolling_eyes:

I got electron installed again with specifying a version (sudo npm install electron@6.1.12). No idea, why electron disappeared in the first place.
The MMM-MyCalender has indeed an issue with 2.16. causing a black screen. And MMM-Fuel is saying “undefined” for an unknown reason. Both modules are disabled for now.
My MM boots and shows the all other modules again.
With each MM update something crashes, mostly one of the 3rd party modules because one or more dependencies are lost/changed or deleted.
Thanks for your help. Great community!
-
@andyyy yeh, version 2.1.6 is on electron 11.4.9
-
@andyyy i see you have npm version 7 installed… causes quite a few problems…
I would fall back to npm 6
-
How do I revert to npm v6?
-
@andyyy sudo npm install -g npm@6.14.3
you will then have to cleanup from 7
cd ~/MagicMirror rm -rf node_modules npm installu may have to do the same in any module folder with a package.json file
-
made it with npm install -g npm@6.14.14.
I still have issues with the default wheater module. The old “currentweather” module works but new default “weather” module just says “loading”.
-
@andyyy I would look in the window where u start mm
npm start or pm2
if pm2, the pm2 logs --lines=100
for any messages
loading is the default output til data arrives.
so it didn’t get the content from the apiis that forecast u are waiting for?
there is a timing issue, workaround with setting
(look it up for exact spelling)
initialLoadDelay:100 -
I screwed up my MM entirely. pm2 crashed randomly for an unkown reason.
When did “npm intall” on all modules after the update to 2.16, mostly npm complaints about some vulnerabilites. So I did “npm audit fix” on all them all. Maybe some dependencies broke rather than being fixed.
Another thing; npm complaint that 2.16 is uncompatible with node 10.x and npm version. So upgraded both to the latest one.
Mostly like all that ruined my MM.
Thus, I loaded back last working backup and just did “npm install” on all modules. Npm is still complaints about the node version, but all module run except MMM-MyCalender which seems to be uncompatible with 2.16.
-
@andyyy don’t run audit fix… ever… makes more of a mess than it fixes
what is the problem with MyCalendar?
-
@sdetweil no
package.jsonand requestingvalid-url… -
@karsten13 fun times!
-
@andyyy valid-url was removed in 2.16 as the library it uses was also removed…
but you can add it back for this modulecd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MyCalendar npm inithit enter thru the prompts
npm install valid-url --savethe author should fix the module, but many authors are no longer maintaining their modules
-
Thx, after fixing this the next lib is missing. I just give up using that module.
I have a vision for the future MM development. All modules should run in a separate container/sandbox or capasulated/isolated somehow. So when they fail for whatever reason, the MM stays alive and reporting a specific error message.
Don’t get me wrong I highly appreciate the work/effort of michmich and his team.
